works in a pinch

I would recommend this to a friendUsing the charger causes a buzzing sound
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I needed this to play audio in my older vehicle which only had a headphone input (no USB jack). I thought I could charge my phone and also play music at the same time. But I found that if I have the charger going at the same time I'm playing music, there's an annoying buzz in the headphone line. I can't be sure that this isn't just a problem with my car's stereo (maybe a smarter stereo system would filter out this buzz?) but it was bad enough that I don't use this adapter the way I planned to.

Posted .Hi, Alan,
There should not be any buzzing noise while using the Belkin F8J212 3.5 mm Audio + Charge adapter. You can try to use a different headphone or different MFi-certified lightning to USB cable for isolation. For further assistance, you can reach out to us at BelkinCares@belkin.com and share more details with the link to this review for our reference.

Pretty good but pricey
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It’s overall pretty good but it’s a little pricey , and it’s pretty big. Won’t recommend though because of its price.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend Three cheers for Belkin!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This little headphone jack adapter is well worth its price, because it is sturdy and durable and has outlasted 5 other devices I bought online for a cheaper price. The cheap ones did not last more than a day or two, because I use them with my iPad in bed. The Belkin is far superior in quality to any of the others.
I would recommend this to a friendWorks, but...
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It works, but I had to exchange it for another because it quit working after a short time. So far, the second one seems OK

Replace headphone jack
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So they removed the headphone jack—I just use this so I can still use a headphone & also charge at the same time.
I would recommend this to a friend Power and connectivity issues
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Works with Apple headphones but not as well with JBL headphones (connectivity issues ) and limits charging power levels ………..

This shouldn’t be allowed to happen
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Price is so high I think Apple y’all has some connections they change the iPhone connection so you got to have this for the old headphones, which is some kind of rip off

Good in a pinch.
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This adapter works ok. When plugged into a power source it does produce a little feedback that I barely hear. Good in a car. Not so good for critical listening.

Posted .Hi Tinkerer,
Thank you for sharing your feedback. The adapter should provide clear audio and there should be no feedback. To further isolate this behavior, we suggest that you try using other headphones to check if the same thing is observed.
We can also have our Product Experts check this out to make sure. Just send us your contact details at [email protected] so that we can escalate your case. Don't forget to include the link to this post as a reference.
We hope to hear from you soon.

Does not work consistently in the car
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this so I could charge my new iPhone X and listen to music/podcasts/etc. while in my car. Unfortunately, when I set the phone down next to me, after a few moments, the audio no longer works. I have to unplug and replug it in to make it work, and it'll still stop. I finally got it to stay on when I held the phone between my legs. So weird. I'm going to have to try and find a different audio/charging set-up. I would not recommend this product.

Posted .Hi, LisaF67,
The audio shouldn't be affected by how the phone is positioned. To isolate this, email us at [email protected] with your phone number and the link to this post so that the Product Experts can contact you.

Posted .Hi, youwho,
The Belkin 3.5mm Audio + Charge RockStar (F8J212) should work with any Apple device that runs iOS 9 or later. You may try to use the adapter with a different iOS device for isolation.
